Undefeated prospects James Perella &

Shea Willcox to be featured

Augusti 16 på Oceanside Events Center i Revere, MA

QUINCY, Mäss. (Juli 8, 2025) – Old-school boxing returns on August 16th somJames "Pitbull" Perkins (13-3-1, 9 Kos) ochAnthony "The Gentle Savage" Andreozzi (7-4, 3 Kos) square off in the 8-round main event on a stacked “Oceanside Prize Fights” card, Presenterat av Kampanjer i granithaken (GCP), for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USA Silver Light Heavyweight Championship.

All åtgärd kommer att strömmas påwww.bxngtv.com live from the Oceanside Events Center (Tidigare Wonderland Ballroom) i, Massachusetts.

En del av intäkterna kommer att doneras till Quincy -brandmän Cancer Foundation, En ideell organisation vars uppdrag är att ge oöverträffat stöd till brandmän och deras familjer när de står inför utmaningarna med arbetscancer, se till att de får vården, resurser, och hjälp de behöver. Gå tillwww.quincyfirecancerfoundation.com för information.

“It’s been long overdue that Granite Chin did an event on the North Shore,” promoterChris Traiettisa. “Oceanside Events Center is a beautiful venue, and they have been a pleasure to work with. This event will be an incredible night of fights with a new WBC Silver U.S. Champion crowned. Ovanpå det, we will be raising money for the Quincy Firefighters Cancer Foundation, which as a member of the Quincy Fire Department, hits home for me. The foundation does amazing work and provides critical support for our fellow firefighters at a time of need.”

Perkins and Andreozzi are throwback fighters who could fight in a proverbial phone booth, providing non-stop action in an entertaining, competitive encounter for a regional title.

En gravigigger från närliggande Lynn (MA), the 32-year-old Perkins was a solid hockey player at St. Mary’s High School in Lynn, who also had another intensive labor job working on a lobster boat. He is a strong, aggressive puncher who has successfully transitioned from the super middleweight division to light heavyweight.

Andreozzi, av Swansea (MA), who is a former Massachusetts Middleweight Champion, has overcome a serious injury to become a title challenger. He broke his lower leg that resulted in 2 major surgeries that kept him sidelined for a full year. Andreozzi is back, hungry and ready for Perkins.

“Sometimes, som en promotor, you must get creative selling a fight, but this isn’t one of those,” Traietti added. “This fight sells itself. James and Tony are two guys who refuse to take a step backwards, for better or worse, coming forward and bringing non-stop pressure. Getting both guys to agree to fight was one of the easiest things I have done all year. They were chomping at the bit. This fight is a can’t miss regional main event.”

Två av de mest populära och lovande utsikterna i New England, Marshfield (MA) welterviktJames “The Slim Reaper” Perella (19-0, 13 Kos) and Everett (MA) junior weltervikt“Showtime” shea willcox (3-0, 3 Kos), kommer att ge huvudstöd.

Perella, 32, had a celebrated amateur career (120-20), capturing 3 New England Golden Gloves -titlar, in addition to a silver medal at the prestigious National PAL Tournament. He will face former FECARBOX Welterweight ChampionSaul “Navajo” Corral (31-24, 20 Kos) i en 8-rund kamp.

Willcox, 23, was a member of two Everett High’s Super Bowl, Division One fotbollsmästerskapslag. He was also selected as the “Most Outstanding Boxer” at last year’s New England Golden Gloves Championships, as well as a 2018 Rocky Marciano Tournament Champion. He will be in a 4-round match vs.Aldimar silva (22-28, 14 Kos), Brasilien.

Traietti concluded, “On top of a great main event, SHEA WILLCOX IS COMING HOME! Getting Shea a fight in his home area was paramount this year. We plan to make it a recurring theme. He is a terrific talent with a loyal fan base that traveled twice to Bridgewater to support him. Now he is coming to the North Shore where he belongs, and the sky’s the limit.”

Additional matchups will soon be announced.

Hogan poster.jpg
BOSTON (Januari 26, 2022) – Det är tanktid, igen!

Den obesegrade prospekten Francis "Frank The Tank" Hogan (9-0, 9 Kos) kommer att vara i ringen februari 12th på ett uppdrag att utöka sitt perfekta proffsrekord mot Vincent Floyd (4-11-2, 2 Kos) i en 8-runda Special Welterweight Attraction på "St. Alla hjärtans dag massaker"-kort, presenteras av Vertex Promotions, på Moseley's On The Charles i Dedham, Massachusetts.

"Dess (strimma) mycket viktigt för mig,sa Hogan. "Jag ser det inte som att det går 10 för 10. Jag tror inte att jag behöver slå ut min motståndare så snabbt som möjligt. Jag går inte ut och letar efter en knockout om jag inte ställer upp en motståndare och skadar honom. Genom kampen blir jag bättre och bättre. Jag vet att jag kan ta ut många fighters eftersom jag vet hur hårt jag slår. Min vänstra är mitt bästa slag. Jag kan slå ut killar med min stöt, men jag har slagit ut killar med en högerkrok, alltför.

"Jag går in i ringen och vet att jag kommer att ta hjärtat och vilja bort från den jag slåss mot. Alla tittar på mig. De vet att jag är den verkliga affären och hur hårt jag slår. Vissa kommer med viljan att vinna, men när jag slog dem, de bara springer eller håller. Jag ska söva dem."

Den 21-årige sydtassen Hogan, slåss ut från Weymouth (MA), har slagit ut var och en av hans 9 professionella motståndare hittills. Den populära fightern var en hyllad amatörboxare, framhävd av hans guld-medalj prestation på 2019 New England Golden Gloves Championships.
Hogan är lika smart på boxning som han är skicklig. "Frank The Tank" förstår att det inte finns någon brådska att öka takten i hans karriär.

"Jag vill inte skynda mig,” anmärkte Hogan. "Jag är bara 21 och det finns fortfarande mycket utveckling. Jag vet mycket, men jag tror att jag kan lära mig mer. Du går inte bara över från amatörerna till proffsen. Du måste gå rundor. Boxning handlar inte bara om knockouts. Jag behöver skaffa mig erfarenhet, inte bara i ringen, men runt om. Om jag får ett bra erbjudande, fast, Jag tar det. "It's Tank Time" inte deras tid."

Även om hans motståndare har förändrats, han är medveten om att Floyd är lång, lång, och att han gillar att ge och ta. "Men jag vill ta ut honom kall, inte få domaren att stoppa kampen,” tillade Hogan. "Jag vill börja 2002 med en smäll genom att lämna honom på mattan.”

After his professional career, ‘Iceman’ achieved fame calling rebroadcasts of fights for ESPN Classic as well as writing a popular column in the British magazine, Boxningsnyheter.

It shows young fighters there is opportunity for them in the sport after their in ring career is over. By giving back as a trainer and a mentor, he also represents the bridge from New England’s past boxing history to the present. Murphys Boxing is honored to acknowledge and celebrate John Scully’s many achievements in the sport.”

Nova, who hails from nearby Albany, New York, recently entered the WBA’s Top 10 Rankings and will be making his highly anticipated 2019 debut under the Murphys Boxing banner. After an amateur career that saw ‘Super’ go 167-11 and win multiple national titles, Nova has been on the fast track as a professional having fought an unheard of 11 times in the past two years.


“I truly feel I am ready to take on anyone in the Top 10.”, explains the confident young fighter who just celebrated his 25th birthday in January.


“I hope to be in position for a mandatory shot at the WBA world title by the end of the year. I am staying focused, having a great training camp and I intend to make a statement to the rest of the division on May 10th.”


In dual co-features, two undefeated boxers from the Murphys Boxing stable will see action on the card that will stream live exclusively on UFC Fight Pass, the world’s largest subscription service for combat sports.


NABF Jr. Featherweight Champion, William Foster III (9-0, 6 Kos), who fought 5 tider i 2018, will enter the ring for the second time this year against an opponent to be named in a 6 round junior featherweight bout. Vid endast 25 år gammal, the New Haven, Connecticut resident, whose older brother is Murphys Boxing’s own undefeated NABA Light Heavyweight Champion, Charles Foster, is fast becoming one of New England’s most talked about prospects displaying the rare combination of power and speed only seen in elite level fighters.


Power punching prospect, Carlos Gongora (15-0, 12 Kos) will take on Argentina’s Damien Ezequiel Bonelli (23-6, 20 Kos) in an 8 round middleweight bout. Den 2x Olympian from Ecuador won the WBC South American Middleweight Title this past February in his native country against then undefeated Jesus Aviles with a highlight reel KO.

In keeping with the event’s international spirit, Murphys Boxing latest signing, Luis Arcon Diaz (6-0, 6 Kos), an undefeated Olympian from Venezuela will return to action against Argentina’s Jose Aubel (8-3, 7 Kos) i en 6 round welterweight bout. Diaz who made his east coast debut last month against Zach Ramsey, looked sensational, dropping the usually durable veteran multiple times before scoring a second round stoppage to continue his KO streak.


Representing the Boston area, James Perella (2-0, 2 Kos), who turned professional last month on Murphys Boxing’s St. Patrick’s Day Clash and followed up his knockout debut just two weeks later on Murphy’s Mayhem at Melrose kort, will look to make it 3 straight KOs when he takes on an opponent to be named in a 4 round welterweight bout.
